Create your own title for link submissions, or they may be removed. Your headline should match the article's headline exactly. You may use a quote from the article in your title, but only if it doesn't misrepresent the linked to content.>

Manipulate comments and posts via group voting, which is against reddit TOS - such content will be removed, and repeat offenders will be banned.>

Report a submission just because you don't like it. The report function is
only
for spam and inappropriate content. If you report something, please message the moderators as to the reason you feel it is inappropriate.

I think you might be a bit misinformed about the nature of reddit. See
this. Individual subreddits exist specifically so that they can be run differently. The voting mechanism is an excellent tool and does have it's purpose, but that mechanism is only meant to be used on things that fit within the guidelines of each subreddit.

The fix is for the
/r/scuba
moderators to remove the offtopic links, and ideally to teach the submitters about the more appropriate /r/swimming
subreddit.

Are you comparing off-topic submissions in these hypothetical subreddits, where confusion between swimming and scuba-diving articles requires some moderation, with blacklisting award winning sites that publish journalism about US politics?

Would you please explain in detail how that Reddit document relates to this situation?
